AM2612-Q1: AM2612 watchdog close function

Part Number: AM2612-Q1
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: AM2612, SYSCONFIG

Hi experts,

 

I am asking for customer. My customer is asking a watchdog disable API for AM2612. I checked AM2612 sdk, watchdog_close(), watchdog_deinit() functions are both empty.

Could you provide a watchdog_close function on AM2612 to me?

 

Thanks!

 

Best Regards

 

 

  • Hi Kita,

    There is no hardware mechanism to disable or stop a watchdog once enabled, so these APIs are intentionally kept empty. The APIs are declared to have API consistency in the driver but the hardware watchdog module does not require any global state configuration via these APIs.

    Until the device is reset, the watchdog timer will keep running. This timer is configured via your sysconfig generated code so the init and deinit APIs don't need implementation in the driver.
